Do pseudo-random thoughts count?

Only if you can define "pseudo-random".

Ostensibly random without really being random.

I'm not sure it's a good sign that when National Geo sends me an email saying, "tigers and panthers are rebounding here" my mind jumps to thinking about WWII tanks.

It might have something to do with the Slitherine sale on Steam.

How do you feel about moralistic hedonism? I mean, enjoying life as much as possible while not hurting yourself or others too much? I smoke cigarettes, which are unhealthy of course, but not as bad as weed or alcohol.

Unpopular opinion...


Am I the only one who thinks the world needs a serious reset?

We gave Russia threatening to invade the Ukraine after they were allowed to get away with annexing parts of the nation a few years ago.

China is continuing to make insane claims over waters and threats to Taiwan.

The US has "patriots" who support insurrection, promote racism and seems to have an agenda similar to that of Nazi Germany in the early 30s, all egged on by right-wing media and the Republican party.

And that doesn't cover what is happening in other parts of the world.

Even little ol' NZ has a pack of scum outside parliament, harassing and abusing kids wearing masks, and infiltrated by right-wing groups.

Perhaps something huge and groundbreaking is what the world needs.

Everyone feels good about moralistic hedonism, that's why it's called hedonism.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

My tentacles are no longer sensitive enough to enjoy.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
